Stupid question but do you automatic get gold for the weekend or do i need to sign up somewhere. Gold ran out yesterday and havent been without in in years

They'll e-mail you the code usually within a few minutes.

Wow, I just got really lucky - I ordered the 12+1 month live sub from cheapxboxlivecodes the day before yesterday using Paypal. Had to confirm my mobile number via email, but the code was emailed to me within 10 minutes overall. Would've been a deal breaker if I had to use my credit card directly.

Why are people so focused on Paypal? Last time I checked, Paypal wont cover DLC type content which includes codes etc purchased....

Read a couple posts back from me. I found a dodgy website and they got my money back. Seller was trying to fob me off with a used points card

Website wouldn't even reply to me. PayPal got my money back

They stopped using paypal

Not really liking the fact that I have to register with some website I never heard of before and add my CC details in that.

Moneybookers/Skrill is a trustworthy site. I have used it for about 3 years, have the prepaid Mastercard with them and have not once have had any problems in the 500+ transactions I have made through them.

I bite the bullet & ordered on cheapxboxlivecodes , payment went through but still waiting for the code.
Got in touch & they said they are currently restocking, should get it later tonight....... I HOPE!!!!!

I rang paypal up before and spoke to a very rude customer service rep who told me theres no chance they can help! Checked the website and sure enough it matched up with what he said.

Suppose it helps who you deal with on Paypal too.

I don't ring then. I started a dispute in the resolution centre. The other guy never even replied and got my money back two days later

Just an update - still havn't received my points, sent 2 emails - no word yet back.
Will update later when I finally get a reply ( I hope!):(

EDIT- UPDATE -
Finally got the MS points off CXBLC, almost 24hours later though (18 to be exact).

I ordered off Cardcodes this morning too - got the points emailed within half an hour, bit more expensive than CXBLC but much faster, take Paypal too.

I'd say you were just unlucky. I have used them a few times and they were always very quick with the codes. Max 2 hours.

went with http://cardscodes.com this time around for gold membership, got code in about 1hr, have bought stuff off CXBLC in the past, but the lack of paypal support was a clincher, aint got time for another login/account etc..

Can you get membership through text?

They're not as competitively priced.

11th May 2013 - 12 + 1 months

Price on XBLC = €36.69
Price on Cardcodes = €36.99 with Paypal

Convenience for 33 cent.:)

Codes ordered at 14.48
Codes delivered to my e-mail at 15.02

Now that's a service :D

Anyone who doesn't mind using moneybookers, this guy has decent prices and is reliable http://gaming-paradise.co.uk/xbox-live/

12 months for 33 quid
14 months for 39 quid

He sells MSP too. If he's online you'll get it in less than 10 mins, if not it might take a little longer. Bought 4200 MSP yesterday and got the code in around an hour.

Throwing my recommendation in here..CardsCodes.co.uk

2nd that. Used to buy from CXBLC but it was going to cost me a fee to upload money to Moneybookers (Skrill) so I could pay them.

sok2005

My code from cardcodes.co.uk took 1 1/2 hours to arrive but it worked perfectly so i'm delighted with the great price!
Also got a Halo Emblem code with my gold membership, don't know what that is but if anyone wants it, it's available.

Just purchased & arrived instantly!

Excellent value!

And terrific customer service when I entered my contact details incorrectly!!

Having major problems getting my MS points from electronicfirst.com/cheapxboxlivecodes this evening.

Paid them via moneybookers at 9.30pm but still waiting for the email. Getting fobbed off by live customer support and was also sent on an invalid code!!

And that's the reason I won't use them unless they put PayPal back. They an offer on their Facebook page and every comment was people complaining about the removal of PayPal

Got the correct code from them eventually - I didn't get an email with the scanned image of the code on Friday - scanner was probably broken or something - so they sent me the code by live chat.

Turns out the agent mistyped O for a D !!

And every week they seem to be selling them cheaper and cheaper.

tbh moneybookers isn't that bad just a pain when I've got paypal all set up. That said, I will only use sites with paypal now. Gaming Paradise is usually very good for anyone looking
